JellyFish Frequency Recordings is excited to present Origin, the debut album by Spruce, a Norwegian human/tree hybrid currently residing in Oslo. After growing up with diverse musical inputs he discovered Shpongle and then Psykovsky, both of which caused a serious reordering of thoughts and increasing clarity of purpose. Now Spruce is dedicated to the tao of music, the most intricate communication; painting the way between the contractions of gravity and expansions of centrifugal movement; pulled between the fundamental entropy and teleological novelty; parodying the auditive conceptuality-attachment; pushing the ontological buttons of inner-ear-hair-mandalas; at least trying, maybe idiosyncratic enough for non-understanding. Mastered by Cooper Priapizzm with artwork by Philip Anthony Suarez and Victor Enteogeno.

When I heard he was influenced by Psychovsky I knew I was in for something special and I was not disappointed. I hear the influence, but this guy has his own style. Great stuff from someone I had never heard of before.

Truly a masterpiece! So deep experiences… This really goes in to my “special trips” section, where things like Purosurpo – Wierdo Wondering Wood Worlds. Psykovsky – Da budet, Tanetsveta, Argaman and more are there… I bow to you tree man…

Thanks alot for all the feedback. :)
Being compared with Tanetsveta is probably the best compliment there’s possible to get, hehe.. I’m glad you enjoyed it!
The upcoming project will probably be released by the end of April. :)
I can say as much as it will be a 14-track 2-hour journey, available in 24-bit 96khz for audiophiles. :)
Well, probably available ONLY as 24-bit 96khz really, so i’m probably pissing off everyone who doesn’t want to waste 5gb of their harddrive, muahaha <3
Much love and stuff, all you enclaves of negentropy and connoiseurs of consciousness <3

What exactly is this “Origin”? Is it the origin of the universe? The origin of insanity? That completely lies on the interpretation of the listener during their experienced through this fascinating, psychedelic journey. At the very first minute, you can leave your normal listening life behind you as you walk through a door into a raw, untainted soundscape. The tribal atmosphere sucks you right into a very progressive experience and is sure to reward any faithful listener. Expect the unexpected at every turn while enjoying innovative and original synths that explore every dark and light visions expressed by 21 year old David Falao Gjølstad. Every song evolves from the ground up, into a tree of sorts full of electric curiosity carried by artistic out-of-the-box development in every single sound. Each track is a 10 minute+ darkpsy, experimental experience that can melt brains and put them back together again. Grab your best pair of headphones, close your eyes, and listen to what can only be described as a passionate, engaging, interesting, quirky, psychedelic, dark, innovative, what-in-the-sweet-lord-was-that explosion. Enjoy it, take it all in slowly but surely, explore every shadowy corner, and leave with a completely changed perspective on the world around you. This album has some very special effects, and I truly recommend it for anyone willing to dive deep into the world of psychedelic music. Sounds can change the world around us, and this album does just that.

Also, album no. 2 will be released on Jellyfish Frequency Recordings in April, so right around the corner now. ;)
And I just want to refute my earlier statement here; the final piece will infact be standard 16/44.1, although it was all rendered in 32/96.
It was just alot more convenient, and the audible difference is actually quite negligible. Having horrible internet myself, I realize what an incredible pain it would be to download 5gb instead of 1.6 or so. :P

Uhm well, Verdampfungswärme means “heat of vaporization”, which is a term in thermodynamics concerning phase changes from liquid to gas. It’s an incredibly arbitrary name really ^.^
Oh, and teil basically just means “part”, so it’s part 1 and part 2.

I just listened to this now, and it’s amazing. It’s really rewarding to listen to it from start to finish, very innovative and really psychedelic and challenging music which requires a dedicated listener. Now on to the other releases of spruce who gives us all of it for free! My greatest appreciation!

this is a gateway to infinity . after listening to this much music from bach and john mc laughin and shpongle and … spruce is the one who changed my way . specially MRU . You are a complete musician spruce :)
